Landing again hard with 4.11

[Treetop64]

I've found that the FW190s can be a bit of a task to slow down sufficiently for approach and landing.

In the Bf109 I'll start dropping the gear and flaps on downwind at 250 knots, then drop the flaps further on the base leg at about 210 knots. I'm maintaining between 1700 and 1800 rpm on the throttle throughout (kommandogerat always stays on, I never touch the prop or mix settings individually in German machines so equipped). On final, flare at 200knots and reduce power, and touch down at around 150 knots. I do this consistently, and so long as there is no damage, landings are never a problem in the 109.

In the Focke Wolf however, I must pull all the way back on the power during the landing pattern, even with everything down fully, and mentally stay much further ahead of the aircraft. Landing is more difficult in the FW-190 since you really cant have any power applied while in the pattern if you want to be slow enough to land safely without forcing it, but with practice and consistency it can be done routinely.
